Environment

Novell iManager 2.7
Novell iManager 2.7.4

Situation

iManager workstation doesn't start.

Command window appears with the following error message: "ERROR!! The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not set to a full valid JDK."

The iManager.bat file was copied from the imanager\bin directory to the desktop.  The error occurs when double clicking on the icon from the Desktop.

iManager starts correctly when opening Explorer, changing to the imanager\bin directory and clicking on the iManager.bat file.

Resolution

iManager will not start, if the iManager.bat file is copied from the imanager\bin directory to the desktop.

1. In Explorer, go to the imanager\bin directory and create a shortcut to the iManager.bat file.

2. Copy the shortcut to the desktop.
